Been spinning this a fair bit the last few days. I've said it before, but I've done an absolute shit job at keeping up with album releases. I only just realised these boys dropped this back in November. Anyway, I very much agree with you: there are some excellent tunes on this, but I'm a little worried about the direction they may be going. I noticed it with Emarosa, too. There seems to be a trend with these Pop Punk bands to go more Pop than Punk. And I just hope they don't pull a Don Vedda and completely lose their Rock identity.
But, anyway, how fucking immense is the closing track, "Bleu"? Gut wrenching. Is he talking about a failed relationship, or a passing of a loved one? Either way, it hit me real hard.
